“This is the labyrinth of Crete. This is the labyrinth of Crete whose center was the Minotaur. This is the labyrinth of Crete whose center was the Minotaur that Dante imagined as a bull with a man’s head in whose stone net so many generations were as lost as María Kodama and I were lost. This is the labyrinth of Crete whose center was the Minotaur that Dante imagined as a bull with a man’s head in whose stone net so many generations were as lost as María Kodama and I were lost that morning, and remain lost in time, that other labyrinth.”
— Jorge Luis Borges, Atlas, p. 60
